Except in precisely one potential matchup, I root for Jacob Eason. I do that because of that win at Missouri, that bomb against the Vols (yeah, I know how it ended), but most of all for the way he celebrated after Holyfield scored on a long run in the 2017 Cocktail Party. Good luck, Skinny.

Not necessarily a cable connection. I have YTTV and when I sign in to ESPN, it asks for my provider and I choose YTTV. So even though they don’t have all of the ESPN channels, I can sign in to the ESPN app and get them all.
I just re-read that and I’m not sure it made sense.

Anybody else notice YTTV doesn’t allow you to keep DVRed football games the full year they advertise? More like 8 months. I went to watch last year’s game against Florida and all I had was Auburn and the games after that one. So, now I’ve watched the Auburn game into the ground….(it was pretty tight there right up until Fromm to Godwin broke it open just before the half)

The so-called ‘fix’ to the overtime rules just makes things all the more ridiculous in my opinion. Why can’t we have something that actually approximates a real overtime? In what universe does starting on the 25 makes sense? I’m okay with eliminating the kickoff in overtime but make teams drive the field. Or at least most of it. Twenty five yards? It feels like Pop Warner ball.

I couldn’t disagree more. Red zone defense vs Offense is the most exciting overtime in sports. The coaches hate it, but even the NFL is eyeing the NCAA overtime method because its actually exciting and can’t end in a damn tie.

It is better than the NFL for sure, but it can come down to a war of attrition and get sloppy as it goes on. I prefer giving the ball to both offenses on their own 25 yard line. Each team gets four plays, total yardage wins the game. Most exciting eight plays of the night. If a team scores in less than 4 plays, they start again from their 25 for the remainder of their 4 offensive plays. (so you can have more than 75 yards total). Both teams get 4 plays on offense, and four on defense. No STs involved.

Good to see that Richt can let his guard down and have some fun in his new role in college football. How ironic that the refs receive training in the stadium of the team they’re likely to try and screw out of a win at some point this season. Congrats to Eason and I hope he lights it up for his home state.

Sally is such a good little comrade, always parroting the Party line. Distributing the wealth for is so akin to dumbing down the schools and giving participation trophies to all. Of course the Committee should live in the tent cities of the homeless, we should never reward success….it has such a terrible track record versus the Utopian dream. And the athletes on full scholly live in such depressing situations!

If we are going to follow this thought process out to the entire planet (that’s what no borders is ultimately all about at it’s core), then wealth distribution should mean we all should live at the mid-point of human existence. Not a math major but I can tell you, reality will come at you fast when you work through those numbers. I feel so guilty every time I stay at a place with air conditioning, or drive my Porsche fast through the curve. LMAO.

Why is this “participation trophy” such a BFD? I spent 20 years in Parks and Rec running kids sports programs and they grew out of demand by parents. The idea was that for pre-adolescent kids they should be learning the fundamental of a sport before they start concentrating on scores. There are always season ending events and giving kids a stupid little memento is not some horrible thing. Now they have the baseball cards and team pics and all kinds of swag. IMHO pre-adolescents should not even be in structured sport programs in the first place.

HAHAHAHA! Tell your typical little league parent that. I had a dad cuss me out (I was assistant coach) after a 35-27 no hitter 9u baseball game. Not one kid put a bat on a ball the ENTIRE game. Every run was walked in or scored on an error. The umpire was a total dick, he knew both coaches from high school and had a strike zone the size of a beer can. I told the Ump between innings to lighten up and he threatened to toss me. I was laughing at the whole situation and when Daddy saw me cracking up decided to get up in my shit about not taking it seriously enough.
What a shitshow that was.

I put Dish on “pause” for a couple of months to see if I was going to be able to hack it with YouTubeTv. It worked well so I cancelled Dish. As soon as I did I started having mild buffering issues on YTTV. My wife said, “you are not going to be happy if this happens during Georgia games. So I signed up for the lower tier of Charter Spectrum too. It’s still cheaper than what I was paying for dish but not what I’d hoped for. YMMV

Hmmm. I’m practicing the cord cutting this Fall on a separate tv at home and don’t even see an option for SEC Network thru Roku. However, there are SEC-N shows available but won’t let me watch them for some reason. Weird. It sounds like I’d have to get the Hulu-Live.

YTTV is what I’m leaning towards, but not in a huge hurry since I still have Uverse. We’ve had Roku forever and feel like we’ve been cheating ourselves, but closely checking out the options for the newly converted TV room. Lol

Cut direct tv in June and watched all the big games from the last 2 years before i did. Went to YTTB with top of the line Roku and have been happy. All the football and golf I can handle. Costco had a deal on ATT fiber where you could get 300 speed for 50 a month. Put in an Eero mesh network and as of now everything is running smoothly.

Quote Of The Day

“But outside of that, the biggest advantage you can have is have good leadership, have a veteran football team, and when you’ve got that, it doesn’t matter whether you have spring practice or not. When you don’t have that, it’s tougher, when you don’t have leadership and you don’t have the experience at certain positions.”— Kirby Smart, Dawgs247, 3/31/20
